When I was a yungin; I was a bit buck wild hence the name was given to
me and over the years it evolved into Lil Buck.
South East Hip Hop:
How would you describe yourself as
an artist?

A straight go getta', unique, not afraid to push the envelope. If people tell me what I can't do, I will go
out of my way to prove them wrong.
South East Hip Hop:
Who would you compare yourself to?
Lil' Buck:
No comparison, I am me. My style
is unique and represents who I am. Have
you seen my show? After viewing my show
people say I have my own style.
South East Hip Hop:
What type of beats bring out the
best in what you do?
Lil' Buck:
I
want to feel the production. I want to live with the track and become
intrinsically involved. I want the track
and my lyrics to become one. When I get
that feeling
I couple with the energy then that's a special track.
South East Hip Hop:
Do you pay for beats? If so, or if not, what is your process for
selecting beats?
Lil' Buck:
In some cases yes, in some cases no.
I gather all tracks which are submitted, I then work to narrow down the
tracks accordingly. The tracks are in a
tournament and many get eliminated as I work toward my final four.
South East Hip Hop:
What producers have you worked
with?
Lil' Buck:
Peace to my mans Hard Beatz, J. Mills (ATL), J. Skillz and J. Buck. These cats hold me down and deliver heat.
South East Hip Hop:
Who did you work with for your
single "Nyte Lyfe"?
Lil' Buck:
Hard Beatz was the producer. It
was one of those tracks that spoke to me.
It had a bonafide club feel and I was like I can F#@* with this. I told Hard Beatz to lay it down and I penned
a solid piece of hip-hop laurel. "Nyte
Lyfe" is one of the best club tracks out right now. When people hear Nyte Lyfe they respond. Many DJs have let me know how the audience
reacts to this track.
South East Hip Hop:
What can listeners expect to hear
on your mixtape A Mill Before The
Deal?
Lil' Buck:
Heat
coupled with energy and most important some brand new s**t!!! A Mill
Before The Deal will be a peek behind the curtain. I am giving a huge slice of what to expect
when the major deal becomes official. I
wanted to put together a solid project that people all over can relate to and
simultaneously prompt DJs to select different tracks to bump.
